Review:

Ideal for Key Stage 3 English literature classes and with well over 20 poems it certainly provides useful insights and tips for aspiring writers or students analysing verse. * Sec Ed * The poems are attractively laid-out, with a clear text and scratchy pen-and-ink illustrations that have a pleasingly 'grown up' feel. * The Guardian * It is gloriously produced , with curves for corners and a skin that thirsts for touch ... best of all, this book id distinctly not patronising. I wish I had it when I was growing up. * Belfast Newsletter Group and Verbal Magazine *
